California

The president said the California wildfires were caused by California’s poor forestry practices and permitting medical marijuana to be grown on federal forest land. California said it was Washington’s failure to provide proper forest service funding. In the mean time, Montana was living with smoky sunsets and sunrises because of the California wild fires. Iowa and Rhode Island claimed they had no dog in this fight . . .

Some Californians, leaving what they considered overly high taxes and overly restrictive regulations, thought that the tall rock on the Arizona side had been created to provide the sundown salute to California as they left and headed for Texas . . .

California had a water shortage and lots of thirsty people–Montana had lots of water and not all that many people. Governor Brown of California, along with George Clooney, Barbra Streisand, Lady GaGa and the Michael Jackson heirs are lobbying the president to use an executive order to annex Montana as a new county and water source for a thirsty California.

David, thinking outside the box, tried to figure out how to ship Texas’ excess flood water to California. Gov. Brown was receptive, but his constituency wanted to know if it was vegan; had it crossed borders legally; would it need Government help once it arrived, and did it qualify for ObamaCare? The nuts & bolts part–how to physically get it there–seemed to be lost somehow. The Libs worried a water pipeline might be used to move Texas oil to California. And who would they name it after–George Clooney, Tom Cruise, Cher, Lady Gaga? Gov. Brown was open, but the Californians were firm–NO BUSH . . .!

When Chandler proposed to his girl friend, she told him she liked him but didn’t want to start life with someone already in the red. She reconsidered when he explained that he was red, not in the red, like the US government, the city of Detroit, and California . . .
